Peter “Mr P” Okoye, one half of the defunct music duo P-Square, has begun publicly sharing his account of the long-running family disputes that have repeatedly fractured one of Africa’s biggest music groups.
In a series of videos posted on his social media pages from Thursday, the singer alleged that P-Square’s widely celebrated 2021 reunion was never intended to revive the group. He also made fresh claims about financial disagreements involving his twin brother, Paul “Rudeboy” Okoye, and their elder brother and former manager, Jude Okoye.
The revelations come days after a fresh social media exchange between the estranged brothers reignited public interest in their long-running feud.
Formed in 1999 by twin brothers Peter and Paul Okoye, with their elder brother Jude managing the group, P-Square rose to become one of Africa’s biggest music acts with hits such as “Bizzy Body”, “Do Me”, “Personally”, “No One Like You” and “Chop My Money.”
The group first split publicly in 2017 after years of disagreements over management, finances and creative control. Although they reconciled in November 2021, publicly reunited, and returned to the stage, their relationship broke down again in 2024. Rudeboy later confirmed in an interview that P-Square no longer existed.
